New bike: super-limited-edition BRABUS 1300 R Masterpiece Edition

The BRABUS 1300 R Masterpiece Edition is super limited edition, with just 50 bikes built.

The latest BRABUS bike, the 1300 R Masterpiece Edition, is powered by the V-twin engine found in the KTM 1290 Super Duke R.

Its sporting exclusive design combines classic motorcycle design with modern features, such as motorsport-inspired side fairings with integrated winglets. These winglets accompany various parts of the front fender in being produced from this hi-tech composite material.

Each of the 50 bikes is made even more exclusive and limited-edition with “Frozen Gold” detail also on the BRABUS Monoblock Z hi-tech forged wheels, decorative rings around the twin BRABUS sports exhaust silencers, the individual model number Sign of Excellence badge on the tank and the BRABUS Masterpiece badge on the seat pad.

There are two premium colour schemes to choose from – “Onyx Black” and “Diamond White”. 25 of each colour will be available.

The first BRABUS motorcycle, BRABUS 1300 R naked bikes, sold out in less than two minutes, as did the second generation, the Edition 23.

The BRABUS 1300 R Masterpiece Edition will be the last build in the series.

It costs 41,930 euros (roughly £36,303).
